How the leaderboard works

Three windows, top 10 each, ranked on focused minutes. When each one resets.

The leaderboard ranks accounts by focused minutes. There are three independent windows.

The three windows

Each shows the top 10 for that window. They are calculated independently, so it is normal to appear on one and not the others.

How ranking is calculated

Total focused minutes inside the window, sorted highest first.

Session count is displayed next to each entry but has no effect on position. Ten 25-minute sessions and five 50-minute sessions both total 250 minutes and rank identically.

Only completed sessions count, on the same rules as focus hours — breaks and abandoned sessions are excluded.

Why you might not appear

  • You are outside the top 10. Each board is capped at ten entries.
  • No sessions in the window. A high all-time total does not carry into the weekly board. The week starts everyone at zero.
  • The session has not synced. Sessions record on completion; if you were offline, sign in again to push them.

The weekly board is the one worth watching

All-time rewards account age more than current effort — someone who has been running the timer since 2025 is difficult to catch. The weekly board resets every Monday, which makes it the only window where a good week is enough to place.

Groups have their own rankings

The public leaderboard covers the whole community. Study groups keep separate internal rankings among members, which is usually a more useful comparison — a group of ten is a field you can actually place in.

Common questions

How is the leaderboard ranked?

By total focused minutes inside the selected window, highest first. Session count is shown but does not affect the ordering.

When does the weekly leaderboard reset?

At the start of Monday. The weekly window covers Monday through Sunday of the current week.

Why am I not on the leaderboard?

Each board shows the top 10. You also need at least one completed session inside that window — an empty week means no entry, even with a high lifetime total.
